Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.
AdBlue Contamination
In Leicestershire we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.
Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously do not start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances pretty simply.
Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it.
Run Out of Fuel Support
Out of fuel in Garthorpe (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the normal issues which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Garthorpe - Garthorpe Wrong Fuel Drain
A lady from Garthorpe with her youngsters in her diesel Hyundai had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She phoned us crying and really upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that the car would be okay and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the youngsters in the back."
